+# Mission API Refactor — Issues & Deviations Log
+
+Significant issues, spec deviations, and decisions surfaced while implementing the
+[implementation-plan.md](implementation-plan.md). Research findings stay in
+[research.md](research.md); this file is the running ledger of **problems and
+deviations** (not routine progress).
+
+## How to use this log
+
+- Add an entry whenever a phase surfaces a real issue, a deviation from the AAuth
+  spec, or a design call that the user may want to revisit.
+- Keep each entry short: what, where, why, and the disposition.
+- `Status` values: `open`, `fixed`, `deferred`, `intentional`, `needs-decision`.
+- Cite the governing spec section for anything spec-related.
+
+## Spec references
+
+- AAuth Protocol — `aauth-spec/draft-hardt-oauth-aauth-protocol.md`
+- Upcoming changes — `aauth-spec/upcoming-changes-02.md`
+
+## Open decisions for the user
+
+These judgment calls were made during Phase 1. **All confirmed by the user on
+2026-06-06**; the fixes are folded into the Phase 2 consistency pass.
+
+- **D1 — Additive first pass, then remove (DECIDED).** Phase 1 adds the new surface
+  *alongside* the existing per-call-PS methods so the solution keeps building 0/0
+  and no flow breaks (DC6). **Phase 2 removes** the per-call `personServer` methods
+  (sample migration completes in Phase 4), reaching DC1's "no dual surface" end
+  state.
+- **D2 — Flat `MissionSession` methods (DECIDED).** Keep the flat methods
+  (`RequestPermissionAsync`, `RecordAuditAsync`, `AskQuestionAsync`,
+  `ProposeCompletionAsync`); no nested facades.
+- **D3 — Promote PS mission machinery into the SDK (DECIDED, Phase 2).** Move the
+  approval-blob builder into the SDK + add an `IMissionApprover` seam so
+  `MapAAuthGovernance` can map mission creation; add a pending/deferred-consent
+  abstraction so a `Prompt` outcome returns a 202 deferred response. Closes DEV-1
+  and DEV-2.
+
+## Deviation entries
+
+| ID | Phase | Area | Summary | Spec § | Status |
+|----|-------|------|---------|--------|--------|
+| DEV-1 | 1 | Resource mapper | `MapAAuthGovernance` resolved `PermissionOutcome.Prompt` as a denial — no built-in deferred (202) user-consent channel. | §Permission Endpoint (deferred consent) | resolved (Phase 2, D3 — `IDeferredConsentStore` seam + `AddAAuthDeferredConsent()`; mapper parks `Prompt` and answers 202 + poll route. Store is opt-in so the existing `Prompt`→denied default is preserved. Interactive browser page stays a sample concern.) |
+| DEV-2 | 1 | Resource mapper | Mission-creation endpoint not mapped by `MapAAuthGovernance`; approval-blob building + proposal approval stayed PS-side (`MissionApproval` was sample-local). | §Mission Creation, §Mission Approval | resolved (Phase 2, D3 — `MissionApprovalBuilder` + `IMissionApprover`/`DefaultMissionApprover` promoted into the SDK; `MapAAuthGovernance` maps the mission endpoint, persists the `StoredMission`, and emits the `AAuth-Mission` header. MockPersonServer now uses `MissionApprovalBuilder`.) |
+| DEV-3 | 1 | Default seams | `DefaultInteractionRelay` has no user channel: questions get an empty answer and completion is treated as not-accepted. A real PS must override it. Documented behavior, not a spec violation. | §Interaction Endpoint | intentional |
+| DEV-4 | 4 | MockPersonServer | Phase 4 listed "swap MockPersonServer's hand-wired `/mission` `/permission` `/audit` `/mission-interaction` + pending routes for `MapAAuthGovernance()`." Kept the hand-wired endpoints instead. They are bound to the deterministic `MissionConsentScript` (`/admin/*` scripting the e2e suite drives), the `MissionPolicyStore` that decides silent-vs-prompt **token exchange** at `/token`, and the interactive browser `/interaction` consent page. `MapAAuthGovernance()` targets the *non-interactive default* PS; reproducing this rich behavior through `IMissionApprover` + a custom `IDeferredConsentStore` is a large rewrite of a spec-conformant, e2e-green file for **zero spec/behavior gain**, against DC6 (no regressions). Consistent with **DEV-1**'s decision that the interactive browser page "stays a sample concern." The agent-facing call-sites (MissionAgent, Mission.razor, GuidedTour) ARE migrated to the new session API; server-side request parsing still uses `GovernanceEndpoints` + `MissionApprovalBuilder`. | §Mission Creation, §Permission Endpoint, §Audit Endpoint (deferred consent) | intentional |
+| DEV-5 | 4 | WhoAmI | Phase 4 listed "WhoAmI — resource governance builder for mission-aware challenge." No such builder exists or was introduced (Phase 3 built the **agent** session surface, not a resource-side one). `ChallengeOptions { MissionAware = true }` IS the canonical, spec-correct resource-side seam (§Terminology: a *mission-aware resource* includes the mission object from the `AAuth-Mission` header in the resource tokens it issues), already used by `WhoAmI`. No agent-style manual `MissionClaim` threading exists on the resource side. No change required. | §Mission Context at Resources, §Terminology (mission-aware resource) | intentional |
+| DEV-6 | 5 | SDK deferred exchange | Building the Phase 5 combined page surfaced two real SDK bugs in the clarification→interaction escalation path (`DeferredExchange.cs`). **Bug 1:** after a clarification round, the poller did not stop on a subsequent interaction `202` (the `stopOnInteraction` flag was not threaded through `PollAsync`/`ComposePollerOptions`), so the SDK kept polling instead of surfacing the user-approval gate. **Bug 2:** when a polled interaction `202` omitted the `Location` header, `ResolveLocation` returned null instead of falling back to the last pending URL, dropping the interaction URL the UI needs. Both fixed in the SDK and covered by `ChallengeClarificationSeamTests` (4/4). | §Clarification Chat, §Interaction Endpoint | fixed (Phase 5; conformance 4/4, build 0/0) |
+| DEV-7 | 5 | SampleApp Blazor page | `MissionCallChain.razor` originally spawned a per-second `PeriodicTimer`/`Task.Run` poll-counter that called `InvokeAsync(StateHasChanged)` while parked on a prompt. Because the approval popup leaves the main tab backgrounded, Chromium throttles it and stops ACKing SignalR render batches; the timer filled the circuit's unacked-batch buffer (default max 10) and **paused all rendering ~120 s** until it drained — an e2e timeout. Root cause is a Blazor Server anti-pattern (background-timer `StateHasChanged` on a backgroundable tab), not the protocol. **Fix:** removed the cosmetic timer entirely; the polling banner is surfaced by a single `StateHasChanged` with a static spinner. (`Mission.razor` keeps its `ct`-bound timer and passes; left untouched to avoid regression risk.) | (sample/UI only) | fixed (Phase 5) |
+| DEV-8 | 5 | e2e spec timing | `mission-call-chain.spec.ts`'s `approvePrompt` asserted an **exact** transient `toHaveCount(2)` after the step-2 approval. Unlike `mission.spec.ts` — where every gate parks on the next prompt so the count settles — step 3 here is **silent and final**: it advances with no gate and appends its card immediately, and Blazor **coalesces** the step-2 and step-3 `StateHasChanged` into one render batch (the DOM jumps 1→3, never showing 2). The exact count was therefore racy by construction; the page behaviour is correct (forcing artificial render flushes into product code to satisfy a test would be the anti-pattern). **Fix:** the helper now waits for the just-approved step's card via `expect(stepCard(page, expectedCards)).toBeVisible()` (i.e. ≥ expectedCards), matching the helper's own documented intent ("reach expectedCards"). The strict final `toHaveCount(3)` and all per-card content assertions are unchanged; `mission.spec.ts` is untouched. | (e2e test only) | fixed (Phase 5; two consecutive clean full-suite runs) |
+| DEV-9 | 10 | SDK governance mapper | The Phase 10 independent spec-compliance review found a genuine non-compliance (NC-1): in `MapAAuthGovernance`'s interaction handler, the `interaction`/`payment` branch returned `200 {status:"ok"}` unconditionally and never read `InteractionRelayResult.Pending`, so a relay that signalled `Pending = true` could not drive the spec-mandated `202` + poll loop. §Interaction Response: *"For `interaction` and `payment` types, the PS relays the interaction to the user and **returns a deferred response**… The agent polls until the user completes the interaction."* **Fix:** the handler now, when the relay returns `Pending` **and** an `IDeferredConsentStore` is registered, parks the interaction (new `DeferredConsentKind.Interaction`) and answers `202` with a poll `Location` (mirroring the permission/mission prompt path); the poll resolves to `200 {status:"ok"}` once the user completes. Without a store it degrades to a synchronous `200` (no user channel), consistent with the permission `Prompt`-without-store fallback. The agent side already polled `202`s correctly (`DeferredExchange`), so no client change was needed. Covered by 4 new `GovernanceDeferredConsentMapperTests`. | §Interaction Response, §Deferred Responses | fixed (Phase 10; conformance 12/12, build 0/0) |
+| DEV-10 | 10 | SDK governance mapper | Secondary observation from the Phase 10 review: the `completion` interaction branch resolves synchronously via the blocking relay (`InteractionRelayResult.Accepted`) rather than returning a deferred response while the user reviews (§Interaction Response: *"The PS returns a deferred response while the user reviews."*). Unlike NC-1 there is **no `Pending`-style field being dropped** — the relay contract for completion is intentionally synchronous (the relay blocks until the user accepts/declines), so this is a design simplification rather than an unwired contract. A real PS whose completion review is asynchronous can model it on its own relay; the default mapper's blocking model is spec-tolerable. Left as-is to avoid a relay-contract change that would risk the completion flow (DC6). | §Interaction Response | intentional |
+| DEV-11 | 11 | Docs & code snippets | The Phase 11 docs-vs-SDK grounding review (subagent) found doc snippets that would not compile against the current SDK: (a) `mission-governance-clients.md`, `mission-governed-access.md` passed **bare strings** to `RequestPermissionAsync`/`RecordAuditAsync`, which take a `MissionAction` (no implicit `string` conversion exists) — CS1503; (b) `server/mission-governance.md`'s `MyPermissionDecider` compared `t.Name == context.Request.Action` (string vs `MissionAction`) — CS0019; (c) `dependency-injection.md` + `configuration.md` documented `AAuthAgentOptions` members that do not exist (`UseHwk()`, `InteractionHandling`, `InteractionHandlingOptions`, `BaseAddress`, `ChallengeHandling*`, `RefreshThreshold`, `Capabilities`, `InnerHandler`, `CallChainProvider`, `SignatureKeyProvider`) and omitted the real ones (`OnResourceInteraction`, `OnApprovalPending`, `PollingTimeout`); (d) `error-handling.md`'s `TokenErrorCode` listing omitted `MissionTerminated`; (e) `server/mission-governance.md` comment said the interaction route is `/interaction` (actual default `/mission-interaction`); (f) `dependency-injection.md` claimed the PS-side seams are "always supplied by the PS" whereas `AddAAuthGovernance` registers no-op defaults via `TryAdd`. **Fix:** all corrected against `src/AAuth/` (the source of truth — samples already used `new MissionAction(...)`/`tool.ToAction()` and build 0/0). | (docs only — grounded against SDK) | fixed (Phase 11) |
+| DEV-12 | 11 | SDK denial wire code | The Phase 11 SDK-vs-spec review (subagent, S-1) found that the deferred-poll **denial** code was emitted/recognized as `access_denied` (OAuth/RFC 6749 vocabulary), but §Polling Error Codes defines the explicit-denial code as **`denied`** (`` `denied` | 403 | User or approver explicitly denied the request ``) — `access_denied` appears nowhere in the AAuth error tables. **Fix (user-approved full rename):** every site was renamed to `denied` with **no** backward-compat alias, since every emitter and classifier in this repo is ours and now round-trips `denied` end-to-end, keeping the system internally consistent and 100% spec-aligned. Scope covered: the SDK PS governance emits (`AAuthGovernanceApplicationBuilderExtensions`), the four-party AS path (`AAuthAccessServerEndpoints` 3 emits, `AccessServerClient.IsDeniedAsync` classifier — confirmed in-scope as those `403`/`AccessDecisionKind.Deny` responses are AAuth polling denials), the agent classifiers (`TokenExchangeClient.IsDeniedAsync`, `DeferredExchange` comments), interface/exception doc comments (`IAccessPolicy`, `IAccessPendingStore`, `AAuthInteractionExceptions`), all sample mocks (`MockPersonServer`, `Orchestrator`, `MockAccessServer`, `MissionAgent`), the SampleApp `Mission.razor` payload+narration, `GuidedTour` narration + classifier, all conformance/integration test asserts (incl. method `Pending_Returns403Denied_AfterDeny` and the Keycloak test emit), the Playwright specs, and `docs/advanced/interaction-chaining.md`. Spec is unaffected (`denied` is already the only denial code there). | §Polling Error Codes (L2023) | fixed (build 0/0) |
+| DEV-13 | 11 | SDK mission endpoint | Phase 11 review (S-2): `HandleMissionAsync`'s carrier-type guard returns `401 {error:"invalid_carrier_token"}` (JSON) when a non-agent token is presented. §Error Responses states *"A `401` response from any AAuth endpoint uses the `Signature-Error` header."* This is a **semantic** token-type check (the signature itself already verified), not a signature-authentication failure, so the spec's 401/`Signature-Error` rule is a poor fit; the behavior is pinned by two existing conformance/integration tests (`GovernanceDeferredConsentMapperTests`, `MockPersonServerTests`). Left as-is (LOW); changing the status/shape would churn our own just-written conformance tests for no protocol-observable gain. | §Error Responses | intentional |
+| DEV-14 | 11 | SDK token error code | Phase 11 review (S-3): `TokenErrorCode.UserUnreachable` (`user_unreachable`, 400) is **forward-looking** — it is defined in `upcoming-changes-02.md` (F5), not yet in the authoritative `draft-hardt-oauth-aauth-protocol.md`. The code comment cites draft-02, which is the agreed direction. Acceptable; tracked until draft-02 lands. | §Token Endpoint Error Codes; upcoming-changes-02 (F5) | intentional (forward-looking) |
